Title: Anyone got a spare Pygmy
Post by: Daisys Mum on January 06, 2014, 06:30:40 pm
Just heard that one of the two pygmys that I sold last year has died leaving a solitary wether, we have no idea what happened, she was fine and running about playing with the boys who owned her,they went into the house and the window cleaner came to the door to say there was something wrong with one of the goats and when they went out she was lying dead.
She had pneumonia as a kid and we lost her twin to it, do you think that it could have affected her heart? She had been eating and playing around normally.

Someone posted earlier selling pygmies from Lanarkshire. If that's no use pm me i may have a wether who has been well handled and is very tame.
